The book titled "Reimaging HR in the Eclectic New Age" makes an effort to systematically study the competencies that HR professionals need to possess and are required to demonstrate so that they contribute to their own effectiveness and also to business success. In its pursuit of managing all its stakeholders, HR has to go beyond its strategy and align its work with every conceivable business context. Only by maneuvering the imminent paradoxes and resolving the inherent professional dilemmas, HR would be in a position to deliver several and varied outcomes simultaneously without diluting the professional standards that it has already established. If the strategic aspirations have to be translated into HR actions, HR practices need to be highly innovative while its administration is expected to be impeccable. With the ever changing expectations from HR, the skills and competencies they need to bring to the table while addressing the people-centered decisions are also changing and getting transformed over the time.
